How about a Jedi Force version of the Hailfire Droid? The missiles are fixed on "bricks" below their launchers. Rolling the droid causes a spring mechanism to make the "bricks" rise and fall, so the missiles extend out of their launch tubes and fall back in as the droid rolls? No actual launching parts for kids to choke on. Yes / no?

Tycho's thread seems to be more of a "Wish List" thread, but I guess it'll do.

I never really got into Galactic Heroes. I liked a lot of what I saw, but I was more into Super Hero Squad. I considered jumping on board a few times, but typically older releases were ungodly expensive on the secondary market. But with the end of GH and the start of Jedi Force, I decided to jump on board since I really liked wat I saw. It fixed some of the design issues I had with the old Galactic Heroes line. The squatting poses and lack of much articulation. Loving the simple packaging on these. Though I do worry that it's going to promote theft in the stores. The $5-$6 price point might help prevent that though, as it's fairly nice for what you get.

Anakin Skywalker & Jar Jar Binks:
This is the set that kicked off my desire to collect these. Since I tend to buy everything Jar Jar for my collection. And comparing this Jar Jar to the same outfit version from Galactic Heroes shows this line is a clear winner. Really loving the Anakin Skywalker figure as well. The articulation is simple, but it really elevates these figures beyond the GH line. Only real complaint I have for this set, is the fact that it's Clone Wars themed rather than Prequel themed. But otherwise very cool. Hopefully if they do another Anakin or Jar Jar at some point, we get ones that are from the films. A note: Anakin's paintjob is slightly different on the version that comes with vehicles.

Darth Vader and Stormtrooper:
I was going to get the Obi-Wan/Commander Cody set next, but the two they had showed some paint issues with Obi-Wan's beard. But I am pretty pleased with the Darth Vader and StormTrooper set. The Vader is clearly ANH inspired, given the red paint on the lenses of his mask. It could be a bit darker red, but it's a kids toy... and Vader needs a splash of color. The Stormtrooper is fantastic as well, and I hope we see an army builder pack at some point in this line. One for each movie would be great over time. Maybe... ANH: Stormtrooper/Rebel Fleet Trooper, ESB: Snowtrooper/Hoth Rebel Trooper, ROTJ: Biker Scout/Endor Rebel Soldier. Just a thought.

Han Solo and Chewbacca:
I wasn't going to pick this set up initially, since I probably will get the Falcon set eventually with Han and Chewbacca. But I noticed that the Anakin and Obi-Wan figures have paint differences in the ones that come with vehicles. Not sure whether or not the same can be said for the Han/Chewbacca set though. But I am happy I picked it up. There isn't all that much to really say about Han Solo, other than I can't wait to get the Snowspeeder so I can get Hoth Han. Chewbacca's just awesome though, love his smile. And I like that they seem to care about scale for the line. As Vader, Chewbacca, and Jar Jar are somewhat taller than the others.

To be honest, I wouldn't mind if it was just a repackaged Vader's TIE Fighter. Since I don't own it as of yet, since I'm never really got into the Galactic Heroes line. But I hope the regular TIE Fighter w/ TIE Pilot gets made also.

I just wish we'd hear some news about the next wave of the Jedi Force line. And hopefully there will be some more villains in the release as well. Since we only have Darth Vader and Stormtrooper. And a debatable Commander Cody, since he's not really a baddy until Order 66 is implemented.
